Thread: Emergency height doesn't activate

Ok now that's working I want more control!
Just wondering will the IDD tool do what the Llams will?
I know it'll height adjust but will it allow you to be in off-road height at above 50km/hr and set low mode for highway driving?

It's the ease of control having LLAMS, it's all at your fingertips any time.

Yes it will but as Rich said, not with the same ease/convenience.

The iiD is able to save preset calibration settings as "favourites". So you could have one for Offroad and one for Extra Low and one for Extended for example. Initially you have to setup these presets (the process is explained in the manual). Then to select one you would stop, plug in the tool, navigate to the preset menu and choose the one you want, then disconnect the tool. With Llams, you turn the dial to the required height mode and it reacts in about 5 seconds while you keep going.

Llams has a Recovery Mode that allows you to get back to normal height if the vehicle has dropped to Limp height due to an ABS fault. Not sure if the iiD could achieve this but haven't actually looked into it. One option would be to clear the fault(s) and pull the suspension fuses. If the fault(s) persist, I'm not sure if the iiD height calibration presets would work. But note that this is arguably an obscure scenario that's difficult to test, so not a primary reason for choosing.

I have both Llams and iiD. One for height control and one for fault reading/clearing and displaying live values. This approach is obviously more expensive.

The new rods will give you both lowering (-20) and raising (+65) functions. A cheap alternative, but requires you to stop and get out of the car.

Its a shame that Llams doesnt operate with the earlier L322's as it would help me greatly.

It does but installation requires cutting and splicing 4 wires and providing 12V power and earth, not plug-and-play.

Thanks for that Graeme. Didnt realise that it could be used in the early L322s.

I know Gordon, I went to order them the other day but you are out of stock so my mind started wandering to other gadgetry, I was thinking if I was getting the IDD tool for the other things it does then maybe I could make do with it for adjusting height and save a few dollars, I'm in the poor man's LR after all!

Oh and your course helped me from having a heart attack as I took on a steep gravel track with a deceiving washout at the top, as the front right wheel went in the air around 1m (onlookers guess without camera...damn) with rest of the wheels on a 45+ degree track I was settled by remembering you saying these things had a very low centre of gravity!!!!
I was amazed by the Disco and it's still on the crappy HT tires although they got some wearing that day!
